The Egilsay Community gathered just before 11am at the War Memorial in the grounds of St Magnus Church Egilsay- listening to the BBC broadcast from the Cenotaph in Whitehall London on a car radio waiting for the salute that signals the start of two minutes silence. Followed by the laying of the Egilsay wreath by the youngest member of our community Amber Craigie.

The names of the Egilsay fallen and the poem 'In Flanders Fields' by John McCrae were read.

Amber Craigie assisted by David Basford Chair of Egilsay Community Association
